Default How to avoid text format change between normal and web format?

Hi ?B?cmVnYWxfZ2F0b3I=?=,

I need to be able to post Microsoft word documents on a web site as a web
page. When Microsoft makes the conversion the text formatting is changed.
How can I avoid the change?

Which version of Word do you have?

As a general rule, from Word 2000 onwards, if you save as a web-page all the
Word information should be saved with the document. However: a browser is NOT
Word; a browser cannot support everything a Word document might contain; and a
browser on a different machine may not be able to display text in a particular
font if that font is not installed on that machine. Your machine may well have
fonts other machines do not - there's nothing you can do about this.
